Two pals of the accused Boston Marathon bombers were pulled from their New Bedford, Mass. home and taken into custody on Saturday.
The two men, known to neighbors by their first names Azmat and Diaz who share a black BMW SUV adorned with a novelty license plate that reads Terrorista #1 were cuffed and hauled out of their Carriage Dr. apartment shortly before 4 p.m.

Reinforcing my thought that the Daily News is not a credible news source -- it's a 2006 BMW 330Xi sedan, not an SUV. If they're going to copy photos from a story published elsewhere, at least they could bother to read the story.
The names suggest a similar to the two brothers' ethnic background, even though Diaz is generally Spanish.
This list of Kazakh names lists "Dias" as a popular name in Kazakhstan:
Диас (испанское) переводе с испанского языка слово диас означает - "солнце". Это имя популярно с 1963 года. Дано в честь руководителя восстания испанского народа Хосе Диаса.
Translated form Russian: Dias (Spanish) translated from the Spanish Language the word "dias" means -- "Sun". This name is popular since 1963. It is given to honor the leader of an insurrection of the Spanish people Jose Dias.
The same source lists "Azamat" (Arabic) meaning respected, venerable.
I could not find either name in the list of Chechen names, however, both names point to a traditionally Muslim ethnicity (Kasakhs are Muslim), despite Spanish-sounding Diaz. Neither name has any currency among ethnic Russians.
ROTFL!!!! I keep getting a mental pic of Achmed the terrorist (stop it! I keeeeeeeeel you!!).

In the local name reference book. See a little research I did in my previous post.
LOL!
They can hide in plain sight because of political correctness and a gullible public.
now now now. You must’nt judge...you don’t know his circumstances. We must be tolerant and open minded.
That is to be pronunciated Oz-MOTT dahmeet Oz-MOTT!! Stoopeed American! < /perpetually offended >
This would make great material for one of Jeff Dunhams shows.....
Interesting.
Boston.com also reported this but said they were arrested for immigration violations, whatever that means.
The bombers have a young relative named Jihad. They call him ‘little Jihad’.
The English refused to be browbeaten into foreign pronunciation. “Claret” is “CLAR-ett” among many other examples. If a word or name sounds ridiculous to American ears, then it does. Just imho, of course.
It means they don’t necessarily tell us what is really going on.
Of course we don’t know either.
This story ran this morning, said they were arrested yesterday, then released. this is the story with the fake boston globe reporters who turned out to be russians
BANKRBR METHDLR MOLESTR
Lots of others
Diaz is used as a last name by Hispanics, not a first name.
Good, get them all. I hope to God this is not the start of a wave of attacks....never know with those who wish to attack us on our home soil.
